These little wonders

Things are stressful right now. There's stuff SuperWife and I aren't blogging about... not life, nor even marriage, threatening stuff, but, still... we're going through some things right now, and these things are undoubtedly my responsibility and my fault, and due to that, there have been many distinct moments lately when I've been disappointed in myself, when I've felt that SuperWife and the SuperKids were disappointed in me, when I've felt inadequate and full of doubt and unsure and a little bit depressed.

And then SuperWife is going through my 7 year old stepdaughter's school backpack to make sure all her homework is done before school tomorrow, and she kind of chuckles and hands me something:We'll get through it.

Everything will be fine.

One note: no offense taken, as I know the intention behind the comment was sincere and affectionate, but I do want to say this -- I don't regard SuperAdorableKid's card, or the sentiment therein, as being anything remotely like a "dumbest little thing". I think it's profoundly sweet, something I'll treasure the rest of my life.

Just a brief note, in passing -- if certain hostile entities weren't certainly still reading this blog, I'd probably have already posted an entry detailing what's currently going on, instead of being continually enigmatic.

I should probably start a more private blog where I'd bitch about job woes and stuff. But, honestly, I'm way too busy for that right now.
